True to life detail - 4K Ultra HD projector

Immerse yourself in a world of Ultra HD. The UHD51 delivers the ultimate in home entertainment with impressive 4K cinema quality images. Enjoy excellent colour depth, crystal clear detail, and high contrast for a stunningly immersive experience.

4K UHD Resolution

With over eight million pixels, Ultra HD 4K resolution brings four times more detail than Full HD, to deliver sharper, life-like images and richer colours - allowing you to sit closer to the screen and enjoy a more immersive experience.

HDR compatible

Capable of receiving and displaying HDR meta data, Optoma HDR compatible projectors allow you to see far more detail and texture. Objects look more solid and life like and the extra detail creates a greater sense of depth. It’s like looking through a window.

Amazing colours

Watch your movies, TV shows and play games with stunning colours in any environment. Optoma projectors provide reliable performance suitable for any content and environment. Our home projectors are capable of reproducing the Rec.709 colour gamut, the international HDTV standard to guarantee accurate reproduction of cinematic colour exactly as the director intended. Or more saturated colours for a punchy looking image, great for gaming and animated movies.

Colour Management System (CMS)

Display accurate lifelike colours to best match your viewing environment. This unique feature provides you with the flexibility to fine-tune the colour settings for optimal precision.

ISF modes

This feature allows you to save your calibrated day and night mode settings for the highest possible viewing experience.

Dynamic black technology

This feature gives more depth to your image by smoothly adjusting the lamp output, based on the brightness information of each frame; to create a stunning high contrast ratio. Bright scenes appear crisp and clear, while dark scenes remain detailed with deep blacks and exceptional light and shade detail.

PureMotion

Optoma projectors can display true 3D content from almost any 3D source, including 3D Blu-ray players, 3D broadcasting and the latest generation games consoles.

Dual HDMI inputs

Play games, stream videos and share photos on the big screen in the comfort of your own home.
With dual HDMI inputs, you can easily connect to your games console, set-top box, laptop, PC, Blu-ray player or media streamer with a single cable. You can even turn it into a smart projector by connecting an HDMI dongle like the Google Chromecast™, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV™ or Roku® stick.

Vertical Lens Shift

Simplify installation with vertical lens shift, which provides a wider range of projector placement possibilities. This makes it easier to position the projector in your room and enables a wider range of screen size options.

Integrated speaker

Complete your home entertainment experience with the convenience of a powerful built-in speaker for exceptional sound quality and an easy set up without the need for costly external speakers.

The UHD51 delivers an impressive brightness of 2400 lumens. The image quality of the Optoma UHD51 is very sharp and natural. The brightness is sufficient for the image width of about 2.6 m. When I close the outer shutters completely and turn off the light, then the picture is perfectly bright and wonderfully clear.

"The Optoma UHD51 is a perfect projector for movie nights in our opinion. Especially in darkened rooms, the picture knows how to shine and creates a true cinematic feeling. The biggest strength of the projector is the high resolution, combined with the good color representation.”

The snazzy compact projector is a dream to live with. It weighs just 5.22kg, and is small enough to hide away when not in use. Another model that uses clever pixel juggling technology to create a 4k image, the picture quality is impressive here. Keep to the cinema image preset for the most satisfyingly sharp and vibrant pictures.

Its movie performance is strong, especially given the price, but its sports handling scores too, thanks to Optoma’s PureMotion processing.

Optoma hasn't just sliced the price of 4K projection, it's made 3D cool again

Brilliantly priced, a rock-solid performer and with just enough setup flexibility not to make installation a chore, Optoma's UHD51 certainly shakes up the home cinema projection market. 4K UHD has unapologetically relegated Full HD to the cheap seats, and offers a level of performance that would frankly have been unthinkable for the price, even a few months ago. It's well appointed, capable of extreme clarity and even makes 3D fun again.

Digital Camera World

There are two HDMI inputs, as well as PC VGA and USB. There’s a fair amount of additional configuration on offer. Multiple gamma settings are available, and there’s variable colour gamut selection. A six-segment RGBRGB colour wheel claims to cover 100% of the BT.709 colour space.

Images are pin-sharp and colour accuracy is superb. Black level can be tweaked using the Dynamic Black setting. We preferred it Off, however some might like the denser blacks it produces. For the greatest contrast, keep the lamp setting on Bright.

HemmaBio

Optoma UHD51 is an extremely well-equipped and exciting low cost projector with UHD resolution that would have been four times as expensive just a few years ago.

It is a low cost projector with reproduction technology best suited for HDTV and streaming material in a normal, non-dark room, like a living room.

When it comes to colours, the UHD51 is impressive, achieving the HDTV color space exactly at Rec.709. Optoma claims to be able to produce 100% Rec.709 and 80% of the larger DCI-P3 biocolor space.

The UHD51 is honest and gives an unexpectedly fine color reproduction within the HDTV-colour space that is standard today on Blu-ray movies, HDTV broadcasts and most of that material which can be received streaming.

The Digital Fix

July 2018

Star Wars: The Last Jedi, really punched through with the space-based scenes looking stunning. However, what really impressed was the final act sequence on Crait - the blood red on pristine white contrast as the speeders whipped up the surface of the planet was stunning and the colour depth provided by the UHD51 made this look better than even the cinema presentation.

Our short time with the UHD51 got us excited for the potential of 4K projectors. For £1499 you can't get more screen for your money - it's a bargain - and you won't be disappointed with shelling out that much cash for it.

“Put it up, turn it on and enjoy it! The Optoma UHD51 makes it very easy to get to a great home theater experience very quickly. It had a considerable range of functions - especially the support for 4K and HDR content- this projector is phenomenal"

david wilkinson, manorhamilton : Ireland, September 2019.Purchased from richer sounds

Very good picture quality,unfortunatly has developed a fault so had to send back for repair,that said the support ive recieved so far has been very good

Movie Nights are the best

HL, Suffolk : United Kingdom, April 2019.Purchased from Sevenoaks Sound and Vision

Bought this projector as our family love films. The initial setup wasn't ideal, using a Roku 4k streaming stick and an analogue amplifier for audio. The Roku HD content would stutter, making the viewing difficult and bringing on motion sickness. Switched the source to a raspberry pi kodi setup. Much better and HD content was great. Finally upgraded to UHD Bluray. This is by far the best option. Action is nice and smooth and together with a screen the 90” screen beats all UHD TVs. Just need to upgrade the audio for the ultimate in home cinema.
Setup is pretty straightforward with HDMI and options for flipping the image around.
The sound of the fan can be a bit annoying when there are quiet scenes.
Overall a great projector for UHD for the price.

AMAZING PRODUCT

Colin Ackroyd, Stafford : United Kingdom, January 2019.Purchased from AMAZON

After owning the Optoma UHD550X for over a year and needed something a little smaller for my cinema room. I heard so many good reviews about the Optoma UHD51 and becusae ive always had Optoma projectors i decided to go for the 51. The projector arrived well packed from Amazon. Slick black case with an off set lens it really looked the part ! Connected to my uhd player and fiddled with the settings and got a gorgeous picture.
